The star of the Los Angeles Lakers continues to prove the world that he’s truly a once-in-a-generation athlete.

You don’t have to be an avid NBA fan to know just how great LeBron James is. But on a daily basis, he continues to stun everyone with his pure skill and freakish athleticism. He did just that on Thursday night, and no, it didn’t happen during Game 4 of the Western Conference Semifinals between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Houston Rockets.

During shoot-around, the Lakers were practicing their mid-ranged and three-point shots. But James decided to show off to everyone, as successfully made a shot all the way from the bench area! Seriously, you can never doubt James’ abilities.

James got the fun out of the way during pre-game warmups, because once tip-off begins, it’s all business. LeBron is heavily motivated every year he enters the NBA Playoffs, as evidenced by his annual social media pause. The man simply wants to win, and he’s done just that, as evidenced by having the most playoff wins in NBA history following the Lakers’ 112-102 Game 3 victory over the Rockets.

Entering Thursday night, James has recorded 221 points, 77 rebounds and 72 assists while shooting 57.8-percent from the field and 40.8-percent from three-point range.
